Adventure Tours in Chengdu, China

Volunteers are invited to assist in an exciting and meaningful program with giant pandas in China! Their survival is of high importance and time is of the essence when it comes to saving this species. The China Conversation and Research Center for the Giant Panda (CCRCGP) is situated in Bifengxia, the branch of Woolong. For over 20 years the organization has worked for the preservation of the Panda population and has now resolved three key problems of breeding which restricted reproduction of the panda for a long time. The current panda birth and survival rates are some of the best in the world. The captive panda population of the program has risen from an initial 6 animals to over 70 pandas. In 2003 the first stage of a state of the art panda base was completed - a veritable panda paradise. It is divided into 6 sections - panda raising and breeding area, scientific study area, food preparing and animal hospital area, staff living area, bamboo base area and tourist accommodation area. Volunteer tasks include cleaning enclosures, preparing food and feeding these beautiful animals!
